Project Jigsaw: Early-Access Builds

The EA builds contain the latest implementation of JSR 376, the Java Platform Module System, as well as
that of the JDK-specific APIs and tools described in JEP 261.

If you'd like to try out the EA builds, by far the most helpful
things you can do are:

Try to run existing applications, without change, on these
builds to see whether the module system, or the modularization of
the platform, breaks your code or identifies code that depends upon
JDK-internal APIs or other unspecified aspects of the platform.

Experiment with the module system itself, perhaps by following
the quick start guide, and start thinking
about how to migrate existing libraries and application components
to modules. We hope to publish some specific migration tips
shortly.

Please send usage questions and experience reports to the
jigsaw-dev
list. Specific suggestions about the design of the module system
should be sent to the JSR 376 Expert Group's comments list.
